Four people aboard a Florida-registered speedboat were killed Wednesday in a deadly gun battle with Cuban Border Guard Troops after the vessel allegedly crossed into Cuban territorial waters, according to statements from the communist regime in Havana.
The Cuban government claims the speedboat "fired on Border Guard Troops" as they approached, sparking a firefight that left all four occupants of the American vessel dead. But given Cuba's track record of lies and propaganda, patriots are asking the real questions: What actually happened out there?
The Cuban Embassy in the United States released a carefully worded statement Wednesday afternoon, but like everything coming from that brutal dictatorship, it raises more red flags than answers. Why would a Florida boat crew allegedly fire on Cuban forces? Were they even in Cuban waters, or is this another fabrication from the regime?
Biden's Border Failures Come Home to Roost
This deadly incident highlights the chaos Joe Biden left behind in our own backyard. For four years, the Biden regime ignored threats from hostile nations just 90 miles from our coast while focusing on targeting everyday Americans as "domestic terrorists."
Now President Trump inherits yet another mess from his predecessor's failed policies. The Trump-Vance administration will demand answers and won't accept communist propaganda as fact, unlike the previous occupant of the White House who kowtowed to every anti-American regime on the planet.
"We cannot allow hostile foreign governments to harm American citizens and then control the narrative," said one former intelligence official who requested anonymity.
While the mainstream media will likely parrot whatever story Havana feeds them, real Americans want the truth. Were these Florida residents in distress? Were they defending themselves? Was this an unprovoked attack by Cuban forces?
The Trump administration has the backbone to investigate this properly and hold Cuba accountable if Americans were murdered in international waters. Unlike the previous administration, this White House won't let communist dictators walk all over us.
Four American families are grieving tonight while Cuban propagandists spin their version of events. It's time for answers, not excuses.
